d.I rotary engine comprising, a stator mcludlng a support and an eccentric xed tofSa'id support, and a rotor including a ring lrotatably mounted on said eccentr1c,an an- 4nular rotor member surroundm and coni tacting'with the periphery of sai ring, said annular rotor member being concentric to said support and eccentric with respect to the axis of said ring, and a pivotally mountn abutment arm connecting 4said annular rotor member to said ring.

4. A rotary en gine` comprising a stator including a support and anveccentric fixed to-said support, and a rotor including a ring rotatably mounted on said eccentric, an annular rotor member surrounding and contacting with the periphery of said ring, said annular rotor member being arranged eccentrically Witlrrelation to the axis of said ring, and a pivotally mounted abutment member connecting said annular rotor member to said ring.

5. A rotary engine comprising a stator including a support and an eccentric fixed to said support, and a rotor including a ring rotatably mounted on said eccentric, an annular rotor member surrounding and contacting with the periphery of said ring, said annular rotor member being arranged eccentrically with relation to the axis of said ring, and a pivotally mounted, abutment member connecting said annular rotor member to said ring, the said1 annular rotor member being provided with inlet and eX- liaustports arranged on opposite sides of said abutment member.

(3. A. rotarvengine comprising a casing, bearings, a support alined with said bearings, an eccentric on said support and an inlet valve on said support, all of the aforesaid parts being fixed, combined with a ring rotatably mounted on said eccentric, a rotor member surrounding and contacting with said ring, said rotor being arranged concentrically with relation to said ring, a pivotally supported abutment member connecting said ring to said rotor member, the rotor 'member being provided with turbine vanes which are fitted to said casing, and said rotor member being' provided with an inlet port leading from said valve to the interior of the rotor member, and means for conducting iiuid from the interior of said rotor member to said turbine vanos.
